Itunes 8 not working on my computer

I previously had itunes version 7.7 whatever on my computer, I recently opened it and I only have 27 songs showing in the playlist, but that's about 1% of the songs I have in there. So I decided to uninstall itunes and re-download it. I re-downloaded it to my flash drive last night and then copied it to the computer. Now everytime I double click on itunes it doesn't come up and then it asks if I want to send an error to itunes, I did.
It does the same thing with quicktime.
Also, I bought the quicktime pro key to be able to convert my videos to play on my ipod, but I can't use it because I can't get into quicktime.
Please help me, I am computer literate however, I am a novice at troubleshooting.

ok there are alot of people looking at the thread, but no help??? PLEASE help me.

Why will iTunes not work on my computer?

I cannot get iTunes to work on my desktop computer. I had a crash some time ago and think it may have to do with a missing driver. I hope someone can help me with this problem. I can access iTunes on my laptop but it is not convenient.

What computer is it?
Have you tried to fully uninstall the program and reinstall it?
If it is Windows Based, try these articles to uninstall,

ITunes not working on my computer each time open iTunes appear a window " iTunes has stopped working close the program "

Hi, I have a problem with iTunes on my computer each time when try open iTunes appear a window " iTunes has stopped working... close a program " someone can help me how fix it.

See HT203206: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Itunes not working on new computer

My old computer got fried and I just hooked up my new computer (pc-xps8500) and down loaded the latest version of itunes. When i opened it up my library was empty. I check and it says my computer is authorized. Thanks in advance.

Your library will only be where you put it.
It will not magically appear on your new computer.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for this very occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to back up, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

I downloaded the new itunes and now it does not work on my computer. How do I get an older version to reinstall?

I downloaded the new itunes 11 and not it will not work on my computer.

Why not? What happens when trying to use it?
"Will not work" is useless when asking for help. Without specifics, no assistance can be provided.

Just in case, let's first try updating your QuickTime Player to the most recent version. Does that clear up the iTunes launch errors?

Itunes is not working on my computer. it loads up and then says it has encountered a problem and to check here for solutions. The solutions I am offered are to re download or repair it. I have tried both plenty of times and it keeps happening. I think maybe I have some programmes on my comp that interferes with it or something similar. Has anyone encountered this before? Does anyone have any ideas.
Thanks

Work around for iTunes not working with shuttle

Well, I have found a work around for the iTunes not working the the Shuttle. It is not pretty, and many of you may not choose to follow my lead. This procedure has a lot of dumb steps in it, but in the end, one can copy data/songs to a Shuttle.
It involves removing the current iTunes and replacing it with a version that also had a bug in it.( I told you it ain't pretty).
Procedure:
1. Go to this url: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/ipod_itunes/itunes802forwindows.html
2. Download the old 8.0 version of iTunes for Windows.
3. Remove the current iTunes from your computer. Note after you run the remove utility in Windows, you need to delete the iTune library that isn't removed.
4. Install iTunes 8.0
Here is where it gets dumb.
This version of iTunes has a bug with the USB interface, but there is an easy work around.
5. Make sure the Shuttle is not connected when you launch iTunes.
6. After iTunes comeup, attach the Shuttle.
7. iTunes should see your Shuttle.
8. Select the music you want to upload, and drag it to the Shuttle.
9. iTunes will just sit there, so you need to get its attention. To get its attention you must disconnect and reconnect one of your USB devices, just not the Shuttle. Some folks do their mouse, one used a USB drive, and another on used is GPS because he was working from a laptop and did not have a mouse.
10. In a few moments, iTunes will do its thing and copy your data to the Shuttle. You must do this routine for each copy, so if you develop a Play List, you only have to do step 9 once.
The getting the old copy of iTunes was my idea, but a gentleman from a year ago figured out the mouse step.
I am now a happy camper, my Shuttle is full of music again.
However, I hope Apple finds a fix for the 8.2 problem soon.
Take care all.

I stand corrected on the name. By the time I figured out how to copy the songs I had a few other names in mind.
One of the first things I tried was the Reset utility. After the iTunes restore did not work, I went looking for something else. After using the utility, I connected the iPod and resynced. I had left the Autofill box checked. iTunes autofilled the iPod. I deleted those songs and tried to put a different play list in. It would not copy the songs, iTunes said there was no room even though the play list for the shuffle was empty. I looked at the settings screen and it said the iPod was full. I synced the iPod to my Mac, and that got rid of the "full" indication. That is when I started looking for an older version of iTunes, unfortunately all I could find is a version with the USB bug.

ITunes wont work on my computer

iTunes just does not work on my computer, it is fully installed and all that but when i go to open the program and error message appears telling me that "the folder 'iTunes' cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the 'My Music' folder" now i obviously have got a my music folder and there is also an iTunes folder in there from a previous installment of iTunes. Is there anything anybody knows that i can do to rectify this problem?

hiya!
the best place to start with that one is with this document:
iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes
but if you run into the complication where "My Music" doesn't appear as an option in TweakUI, try the alternate technique in this Nigel Carpenter post:

Itunes not working when i plug ipod in

I have resetted a ipod classic to the original settings and it will not connect to itunes on my windows 7 computer. A message comes up that says itunes not working and closes it down. What do I need to do to get it back and running so I can put music on it?

i believe you are using an apple device for the first time
once you connect your device to the computer, on the left handside in centre of itunes your device will appear
if you dont know how to add songs and other stuff, just look for it on youtube which will be easy to follow

I had problems uninstalling Apple Mobile Support, I had to repair it first before I could uninstall it. You will have to restart the computer after all the uninstalls, and before reinstalling ITunes. I reinstalled ITunes from the Apple website afterwards (fresh download) ... everything works for me now that I have done this.

I have just installed iTunes for the first time. When I run the application I get a "iTunes not working" message. Operating system Vista (32 bit). I have tried reinstalling with all firewalls off, but still no success. Have other people had this problem?

Why does a movie I bought on iTunes not work without internet?

Why does a movie I bought on iTunes not work without internet?

As long as the film has been fully downloaded (or synced from your computer's iTunes) then you should be able to watch it in the iPad's Videos app without needing to be online - is that how you are trying to view it ?
